Hi everyone. i had a Sony TV which i was using as monitor but things didn't go as planned since it never really worked as i thought it would. Fonts were blurry and fuzzy, games like Wolfenstein and Battlefield 4 had a terrible look, like there wasn't any anti-aliasing at all. After googling for almost a whole day i discovered the TV had a "4:2:2" aspect - or something like that - and that good TVs to use as monitors have a 4:4:4 aspect.
So i decided to buy a new TV, but i don't want to waste any more money on something that won't work properly. I found this one: http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/tv-dvd-blu-ray/televisions/small-screen-tvs-up-to-32/samsung-lt28d310-28-led-tv-10010876-pdt.html
Anyone knows if its 4:4:4 and won't give me any trouble while using it as monitor?
